Our Wonderful Natural History Trip!

On
Friday we started our trip on the bus and went to the Museum. In the entrance,
there was a VAST elephant
we had to sketch. And by the way I was in the group with Rozenn’s mum. We were:

Pablo (me) Fernando, Elie and Maria. In the sketch the elephant bit,
we all had to sketch in different corners. First of all I sketched the back
bit, but I thought it was hard and a bit disgusting. LLLL

So I
decided to do the front part. I found that the elephant was named by… GORGES
CUVIER!

After
a while past the elephant we entered the Minerals and Gems room. We had to
choose one and write a similie or a haiku. I wrote a haiku about my mineral:

Bronze
and obscure gold,Freezing grass and trees with wind,Storm is coming soon.

We
also took pictures and videos…

When
we’d finished, we sauntered to a room about the continents. There we watched a
video of how the continents travelled around the world.

Meanwhile
we went to the skeleton zone where we had to sketch an animal skeleton. My
group's animal was called: The Monk Fish (Lophius Piscatorius)

At
that time, we entered the animals room. We sketched one. I don’t know what the
animal was called, but it looked like a half Pig half Hippo. We went upstairs
to sketch some patterns of around the world. I sketched a blanket from Congo.
